Set on Chewton Road in Walthamstow, this ground-floor two-bedroom period flat offers generous living space (approx. 723 sq ft) and a rare 50ft south-facing garden — a real asset for outdoor living and entertaining. Original features including a cast-iron fireplace, sash windows and coving give character throughout, while high ceilings in the principal bedroom allow fitted storage or bespoke wardrobes.
The layout is linear and practical: a bright front reception, two double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen/diner and a bathroom to the rear with direct access to the garden. The long 150-year lease and modest ground rent (£150 p.a.) make ownership straightforward; local transport is excellent with Blackhorse Road and St. James Street stations under half a mile away for Victoria Line and Overground services.
Known positives include the sunny private garden, period character, double glazing and mains gas heating. Material considerations are transparent: the building is a solid-brick Victorian mid-terrace with assumed no wall insulation, glazing installed before 2002, an EPC of D, and the area records higher-than-average crime — buyers should factor possible security and retrofit insulation works into plans.
This property suits first-time buyers looking for a characterful home with outdoor space, or investors targeting long-term rental demand near good transport links. It is being offered with no onward chain, enabling a quicker transaction for purchasers prepared to update and personalise the interior.
